For those guys that think there has to be a better fuel filter.......
I think I just came across one. (I'm not sellin' 'em-no affiliation.)
The company is Canton/Mecca. Used one of their remote oil filters on my Saab 9000T back in the late 80s. They offer a direct bolt-in upgrade that will outflow and have double the filtration of the stock filter.
#25-910 is the in-line filter for Ford EFI. It has the factory style quick-disconnect('quick, my a$$) fittings(same as stock--no fuel line mods needed)--4" long 'can' with a 2 5/8" long REPLACEABLE one micron fuel filter element.
I ordered one today and will replace my stock one as I now have 14,000 miles on my L.

Price from CM; $75.00, $11.25 for the replaceable elements. You may be able to get them cheaper from one of their customers, but I went ahead and ordered mine today.

Try www.cmfilter.com instead. The comma in the previous post threw it off.

Canton Racing Products........
I got their fuel filter yesterday......man, is it bigger--about 1" longer(overall), while slightly larger in dia. I plan to install it this weekend--15,000 miles went by quickly--and will post any 'install' problems.
Btw, they included their catalog with the filter. Very interesting--they have a 'spin-on' oil filter for our eng. too. They are 4 1/4" long by 3 1/4" in dia. and they accept their 2 5/8" high 8 MICRON element(replaceable) which flows 15 G.P.H. of hot eng. oil with no loss of pressure. The p/n is 25-290 for 1997 and up 5.4L truck engs. The housing is machined aluminum, black powder coated with a red anodized aluminum bottom cover(removeable to allow for element changing). The 'element' is a synthetic 'depth filtration element' instead being a 'surface' paper filter as most standard filters are.
Post is becoming too long--go to cmfilters.com if you're interested.
